"Cristiano's phone has been buzzing with calls and emails from bewildered pals in the past few days," a source said. "They have all been ringing and messaging to ask what the hell the email is about. And of course they all want to know more about the girl in the pictures."

The pictures included one of the fan in a tight T-shirt with the words "Too Hot To Handle", according to the report.

Luckily for Ronaldo, his Sports Illustrated swimsuit model wife-to-be seemed to shrug off the incident.

"He is embarrassed about the whole thing and is particularly mortified at passing the email on to Irina," the source told the paper. "But he has done nothing wrong and luckily Irina hasn't confronted him about it."
